Is he it?
when i was younger, i dated a guy for awhile. and he was my first kiss, my first love. he was perfect. christain, blonde, blue-eyed, funny,didnt drink, virgin, didnt do drugs, anti illegal. we broke up after 6 months. he was too immature. and i was only 12. but we remained really good friends. and there was always something there. and i knew he still liked me. but, i moved 3 years ago. and we stopped talking. but then all of the sudden we started talking again. and when i came back to visit, i was always with him. and right before i left to go back home he told me he has always loved me, and he really truly thought that i was the one for him. the things he said, i had to believe him. and i was still in love with him too. and i take the word love really seriously. but, now. hes changed. he does pot, pretty much athiest, drinks, hes not a virgin. and everyone is telling me this. and since i moved, ive never seen him like that. ive never even met who theyre talking about. when i think of him i still remember my perfect boy. and something still tells me stupidly, that no matter what happens im going to end up with him. hes my destiney. but how can someone that has changed so much; to the complete opposite, be the one for me? and i know that hes changed, but its still there. and ive tried to move on and forget. but no matter what, i still see him as my future. how can i be in love with a boy that doesnt exist and not even know the one that exists now? i just, i cant explain it. and i dont know what to do.

Baby Urges...
I've had a pregnancy scare, but to tell the truth I wasn't that scared, I was more excited that my boyfriend and me could have a baby. He felt the same way, oddly. Some past history. My boyfriend now was one of my cloest friends all throughout High school. Even when I had to move to PA, from VA before my Junior year. We had never thought about going out because we as always thought of eachother as reated. We even stayed close in the long distance situation. We would have endless conversations on the phone, keeping me up on school nights =)We did, however, have a crush on eachother on his junior year and my sopohore year. We didn't tell anyone about it >.< so we just flirted and didn't tell how we felt. Well, I visited VA in the summer, twice. The first time I was glad to see him, of course. We ended up kissing that day. We haven't had any troubles yet. Our relationship is really good, I think it helped getting to know eachother over the last four years or so. He's 98% sterile and right now I'm thinking of actually starting to try for a baby. I don't care when it comes, as long as he can have the baby he's always wanted. I want a baby so bad, but I'm not willing to break up with my boyfriend to get it.
